Man accused of raping two women at the Sea of Galilee

Yuval Cohen, a 43-year-old Kfar Saba resident who manages a jet ski rental facility near the Sea of Galilee, has been arrested on suspicion of rape, police announced on Wednesday.

The suspect allegedly raped and committed indecent acts with two women in their 20s while on a jet ski in the Sea of Galilee. The events evidently occurred on the water as well as in a rented cabin onshore.

Police suspect that the accused worked methodically and there may be other victims. He will be indicted in the next few days.

The arrest comes amid a sharp spike in reported rapes over the last several weeks.
